Guarantee the S will smoke you at the corner.
In ricerville, yes. In real life, no.

I've tangled with a Cobra in the twisties (Hwy 78 east of Julian for you SD folks)... he seemed to know the road as well as I did, but with all those hard corners he didn't have a chance. I left him back quite a ways, but when we got to the desert and a long straightaway, he re-paid the favor.

I'd call that a tie, each car shined where it was supposed to.

Can my ricerville be fried, with plenty of sate stirred in?

I think someone should race an 03 cobra at a auto-x, both stock. Race it, spank it in the turns. Then go to the svt forum, and post you beat it. Then in the smallest font say it was at auto x.

You're right b/c in a video posted here an S2000 was right with a Z06 on the track. I'm sure an 03 Cobra (or any Cobra) could do that.

Who cares? Your comparing a sports car with a roadster.

The s2000 would obviously beat that car in a road courses just like the 03 would smoke it on the track. Both comparisons are f00lish to begin with.

Actually, the Mustang is a sports coupe and the S2000 is the sports car!!

Your wrong.
Not really... in a straight line the S2 doesn't have a chance against a well driven 03 Cobra. I still don't believe I'm seen a supercharged S2000 crack into the 12's and you think it can run with a car capable of low 12's in stock form?
